Apparently not!

Just checked the zone/dealer listing and it's from Marte Pontiac in Columbus....close.

Not sure why Mattison said it was.

I'm still happy with it.

Welcome to Robert and his Black Deuce Vert.
Heard a lot about it, but seen very little.
Show and Tell us more, when you can.

Welcome to gto66yellow and his Blue Deuce Hdtp.
Your story kills me so hard. I'm dying over here.
Pretty much about the scenario i've been hoping for ... for a couple decades.
Big time Congrats, and you stink. [censored]
Grind the salt and give us a link to the eBay listing.
Did any pics on the listing clue you to Ram2'ness ?

As far as I know - in 68 both FB and GTO with RA used the same 19” 4 blade fan. Did not matter if auto or 4sp. Mine has a 4 blade and there was a 4 blade in the truck of my RA FB when I got it.

There was a 7 blade clutch fan option listed in 68. (#514)

Where is muscle_collector!! You have a bunch of 68 RA cars, what fan is on them?

Hey Rick!

I was curious how your RAII car was coming along and can't believe I didn't see this until today. No surprise that it looks fantastic already!

Rick does amazing work on his restorations, I have a fine example sitting in my garage

Good to hear things are moving along nicely - I've subscribed to this thread for the updates as they come along. The '70 is tucked away and sleeping still, but it shouldn't be much longer - spring is in the air and I'm really getting the itch to stretch its legs!
